edit: Sorry, meant to post this in case central. Mods, more than happy for it to be moved.
I'll soon be kicking off a new case mod and am in the final stages of deciding on the colour scheme. I want something individual, the problem is all the ideas I have i think have been done to death a bit so i'm looking for some opinions and inspiration. It will be a water cooled build so the colour scheme will need to be carried through tubing etc.
Here are my thoughts so far, I welcome all feedback
I'm pretty much decided on the main colour of the case being a deep charcoal/anthracite so all other options will be with that in mind, unless you can think of a better main colour. I want the colour scheme to have a look of bespoke quality about it, but at the same time not look too boring and mainstream.
option 1
mostly black inside but with chrome fan blades and chrome fittings. perhaps chrome up the rads. tubing would be black. what colour lighting?
option 2
As above but with black fittings what lighting?
Option 3
Orange fan blades perhaps orange highlights inside with orange lighting
White fan blades with white highlights and white tubing on either black or chrome fittings.
option 4
just all black inside but what lighting.
option 5
Semi steam-punk look. exterior and interior in the charcoal but with rads sanded back to brass/copper and other highlights in same effect. fittings would have to be chrome or black. i couldn't go full punk as I don't have skills and wouldn't want to either as it's not the full look i'm after
would like to know what you think of above, and any other ideas you have.
Please go into as much detail as you can.
